Just looking at next years cap, the Patriots are right up against it.
Projected cap $116 M
Current count $100 M
http://www.patscap.com/futureyears.html
On paper it appears that there is no way they keep Stallworth $6.3M hit or Washington 5.8M hit (if he makes the team). We may be rebuilding the WR core again after next year (Moss, Caldwell, Gaffney are free agents)
08 Priorities \ Questions
- Stallworth - $6.3M, unless he really lights it up he is hard to keep at this number
- Washington - $5.8M impossible to keep at this number
- Colvin - $7.3, not as high as I thought seems like he is worth keeping or extending
- Brady is at $14, it may be time to lock him up for 5-6 years
- Light - $5M, seems like he is worth keeping
Possible candidates for early extensions (all three have contracts that expire after 2009, extending them 2 years early ala Ty Warren could save the Patriots a lot of money and help keep some key players on the team )
- Wilfork
- Mankins
- Hobbs
